Late Night

Unbreakable Bond

Headcanons and indirect quotes :p #4

🔶 Tails: You ready for tomorrow’s history test?

Sonic: Yea

Tails: What ended in 1896?

Sonic: 1895

Tails: Yea you ready…

🔷 Tails: So, who did ya learn about today?

Sonic: Errr some guy called ‘Martha Luker King Jr.’

Tails: *tryna hold it together* u-uhm okay…and what did he do?

Sonic: *with all confidence* He died for our sins…

Tails: Wait no that’s- *wheeze*

🔶 Sonic singing along the Chorus of Speed Life (he doesn’t know French): 🎶“Something something speed life…SOMEBODY’S WATCHING MEEEEEE”🎶

🔷 Sonic and Tails have this challenge they do at karaoke nights where they attempt to sing a song that’s not in English, which really just ends up as a big laughing fest as they fail miserably. Sonic tries to make up for it by dancing to the music (cuz mind you, it’s catchy) but his legs turn into spaghetti from his fit, and faceplants onto the floor. Tails attempts to help him up but his knees do a funny and falls on top of him, leaving the brothers immobile and gasping for air.

🔶 Sonic: is the pink panther a lion?

Tails: say that again but slower

Sonic: I don’t get??

Tails: he’s the pink PANTHER

Sonic: okay?? But is he a lion?

Tails: 🤦..*grabs the landline phone* hello is this the brain replacement store-

🔷 The brothers have a war going on in their Snapchat stories, where they would steal awkward pics of each other…whether that’s Sonic eating a really messy chilidog or tails after an experiment gone horribly wrong, with the caption being like ‘look at this loser lol’ or something meme related…yes they turn each other into memes

🔶 Sonic would randomly decide to attach tails to a lead every now and then to see his reaction, which at first was pretty vicious, but now he’s just like “rlly bro? -_-” but either one would send Sonic in hysterics

🔷 Tails: hey Sonic, what word starts with “f” and ends with “u c k?”

Sonic: Fu- WAIT TAILS NO-

Tails: it’s firetruck! 😊 uhh sonic?

*cue sonic getting carted away in an ambulance…i think he stopped breathing*

🔶 Since Sonic doesn’t give a toss, tails would somewhat keep an eye out on his brother’s quill care (you could say Amy has talked to Tails about the matter) so after heaps of reasoning and the last resort - the cute fox eyes, Sonic reluctantly gives in to letting his younger brother brush his quills for the first time. It’d go down something like this…

Tails: one~

Sonic: ow-

Tails: two~

Sonic: OWWW…how many of these (brush strokes) do we have to do?!

Tails: like a thousand or something…thre-

Sonic: AAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEE!!!!🦅🦅🦅

ANOTHER LIFE IN THE DREAMHOUSE REFERENCE IM SORRY IM SORRY-

🔷 Tails was so sleep deprived that he almost mistook liquid petroleum for coffee one morning (somehow)

🔶 Tails loves planes…in all forms…and THAT INCLUDES the one used to be fed…

Sonic: Tails, you are 8 years old, with an IQ of about 300…and you still want me to do…this?

Tails: b-but…aeroplaneee 🥺

Happy wholesome Wednesday!

A shoddy laptop sits on a fold out table. It’s got some old recording stuff plugged into it, a dusty microphone sitting at the edge. Dave really isn’t too sure what he’s doing. He couldn’t find the words to write out, and he’s not really feeling up to showing his face to a random blog on the internet yet. So-audio time. Bringing it back old school style. He had tape recorders as a kid, copied down his thoughts there and shit. Most of those didn’t survive in his childhood home. Now, let’s see…where to start? He could treat this like an audio diary, maybe. Spill his guts to the internet in hope of answers. How seriously should he take this??? After some procrastinating the blond hits the record button. If he keeps overthinking this, then he’ll never get shit done. Just start spewing shit Dave, you can edit it later. Dave: Alright ghostlybroskis, we’re back on the air. Or the mic. This isn’t live. Dave: Fuck. Whatever, it’s fine. Dave: I know my last post had a lot of y’all confused, but don’t worry, it was just a lil audio error, haha. Dave swivels closer to the desk in his chair, crossing his legs in the seat. It was a lie. The audio he posted was 5 minutes of him talking, but it uploaded with just straight silence. Got a lot of questions about it, and it took him a while to work up the nerve to address it. His audio has been doing that a lot lately. Just cutting out completely as if he’s not even there. Gotta love it. Dave: It was an experimental audio, I guess. Like a dog whistle kinda thing I saw online and was like oh shit I should try that, that would be interesting. Dave: But it didn't work, so I’ll probs just delete that shit later. Declutter the old blog. Dave: I got some questions in since the last post, so I guess I’ll answer them now? Dave: As a recap for anyone new, just call me your local ghostlybro, whatever the username says. Dave: No, youre not getting my age or my real name, this is just a side blog, I ain’t tryna be all that serious. Dave: And I’m also not a ghost expert. Just sharing some weird experiences on here, kinda lookin’ for answers, but not expecting much, so. Dave: Let’s get into answering some of these bad boys already. //Ask blog is now open!! This is a paranormal-ly humanstuck AU, where Dave died and came back to life danny phantom style. He’s got some weird ghost shit happening to him, recently moved in with his older brother Dirk and his partner Jake, who both work as paranormal investigators! Just a fun lil side thing. Dave’s blog is an anonymously run one by himself, and Dirk and Jake don’t know about it. They don’t know about any of the weird shit happening to him-but Dave literally just. Disappears sometimes and freaks himself out. Sees ghosts and ghastly shit daily, is starting to hear shit, and on occasion something touches him and he almost double dies. Trying to pretend he doesnt hear or see anything if something is around him, but damn waking up with shit in the corner of your room is fucking gnarly. Will occasionally post art with it too! Got low energy so can’t do an art reply with everything-but I’ll do it when the inspo strikes!!

#ghostlybroskis #dave strider #intro post #mod crow #ooc #rp #ask blog #dave ask blog #hoemstuck ask blog #introduction #homestuck #2024 homestuk #homestuck 2024

— WIP WEDNESDAY (and updates in general)

tagged by; @onlymeandlife thxthx (i’m so bad at doing tags as of recent dhjesb)

posting this very late but oh well

i have too many unfinished old sketches than i’d like to admit 😔 but i’m gonna share a snippet of two three most recent projects i’m working on atm

edit; since making this draft i made some more sketches but they’re 😬 rOUGH to say the least so enjoy my favorite ones

tagging 😳; @noirapocalypto @katsigian @spicyraeman (not sure if y’all been tagged in this but if you have something cool to share you’re invited 😼 no pressure as always tho!)

— art

finally dusting off Vincent 😮‍💨

last time o drew him was in uhhh june??? (may?? ig coz i was tryna get that piece done for pride month but—)

yea it’s been a while :]] but he’s back; you may not have seen him as of recently but i’ve been working on him behind the scene (aka lore dumping on whoever would listen lol)

it’s mostly coz i didn’t know what to draw of him, didn’t have any inspiration, and his face turns out good once in a blue moon but let’s not talk about that dhdhdh

but earlier this month i had a ✨ vision ✨ of him in a suit and we’re here now 😮‍💨

once in a while i like putting my man in fancy/designer clothes okay 🤨

cheeky closeup of some details ✨😌

a huge project i’ve been working on since the beginning of december (or maybe since last week of november even); so i don’t wanna show too much before it’s finished 🤫

you could see a bit more in my 2023 art summary (mostly just Dion sitting there in all his glory) but there’s still a bit more. it’s a first proper illustration with a full background for me so the work is going slow

still need to fix a perspective on one thing, perhaps redraw Dion’s face, coz i’ve been experimenting with that; but the lineart is pretty much all done. all it needs is to pick a color scheme, block out colors and start shading (the worst part arguably)

very proud of this one and i’m excited to finish it and show the whole thing 🥺🥺

and last but not least some studies of my beloved tiefling child

trying different head and nose shapes for that guy but it also kinda turned into an expression study? kinda?

#edging y’all with those zoomed in cutouts #but i want the vincent piece to be a surprise djdjdh #current wip #wip wednesday #art wip #oc: vincent elijah vahn #saevus-brutalis art #saevus brutalis art #wip #oc: dion

i hope this helps u write ur fic but consider; ur fic might not hold up to ur own standards, but the regular sulemio shipper isn't going to be doing literaary analysis anyway? if i saw a new fic in the tag I'd just be happy to consume more wlw content

the 2 cakes metaphor basically

Oh! thank you ;w;!!

I kinda forget that I am now developing a following on my tumblr dot gov account so y’all will actually remark on my late night bitching, it’s a bit of a shock tbh but the advice is appreciative I mean it ;;

That is true! I just get nervous is all, some liken me to a prey animal at heart and then I think about how others will react to my material and then I get prey animal nervous, where it’s built up on irrational thoughts and stuff

I’m still writing and I’m tryna just write for myself and sulemio brainworms and enjoy what I write rather than like. Take it so hard over literally nothing like it’s just an ao3 fic I don’t know why my dumbass gotta take it so seriously sometimes

Sometimes tricking my brain to deprive a cathartic sense of self indulgent pleasure from the experience eases the whole horror of perception thing I ultimately have and what i like to call ‘my anxiety brain’ describes as a lack of skill in the medium I try to create art in

Aka im tryna just have fun with it and not over think bc I overthink a LOTT it’s not anyone’s fault expect my own this is literally me

Tl;dr: im weirdddd But the words have put me at ease ;;; idk I just appreciate it thank you two cakes metaphor is so real, I try to not take things seriously and I try to not give my thoughts after 7 pm ground to fester

The Triangle Chronicles

Spin of The Night: Space Age Pimpin’ - Eightball & MJG

11:23 p.m. 12/16

I don’t know why I still even give this nigga a chance. The nigga I’m referring to is NOT my child’s father, not one of those storytime’s ladies, ha! Remember Max, well yeah, it's him. I do feel a much deeper understanding with this current situationship, what started as a meaningless rebound transformed into a transformative experience for me, I am realizing the true capacities of my mind & body physically & emotionally, only I don’t know exactly what the fuck it is i’m experiencing but I’m starting to think what I thought was something that could’ve been “it”, is just another waste of time. Silly me, right? I mean even the things that bother me with this man, don’t make me stray. Tell me ladies, is that the definition of “naive” ? Either way, it feels good, …shit, really it feels amazing! Selfishly, I’m not tryna lose that, the man says he listens to my favorite song when he thinks of me, how true that statement is now, who knows LOL! But damn it sure feels amazing. Maybe the problem is how good it feels, and that after that feeling wears off, all that’s left is the space of emptiness where that feeling once was.

⤁⤀⤀

“I thought I was ready for you, turn’s out I wasn’t even handling myself the right way.”

⤁⤀⤀

I know allll the freaks want to hear about it… you know what I’m talking about, the nasty things I do & to be honest I’m not ashamed, I’m a consenting woman, but how deep are we going Ladies? Darius & Nina or Savannah & Kenneth? Anyways, let's talk about it. Sex with this man is something that currently has me in a chokehold 😖 but it’s not just a “crash-and-go scenario, Max takes his time, everything is about my pleasure, at his pace and still I’m always in full control.

It’s masterful.

I met this man about 2 months after my breakup from my child’s father & initially, we had a pretty decent friendship, just good conversation & laughs, something I am positive neither of us were taking seriously… then we decided on a day to meet each other and share these same conversations etc.. in person, neutral decision. Now before I get into this next part Ladies & whatever Gentlemen who have found themselves here, DISCLAIMER: I Am NOT A Hoe!!!

Buttttttt! I did indeed give up a pinch of pussy 😭 but what can I say, I’m a sucker for a great smile, especially one that’s looking up at you from the place down below. I do things I said to my savior I would never, freaky, nasty, shit that runs through your mind during your workweek, I wait up until the late hours of the night for these erotic moments & I return to my bed in the early hours of the morning. Satisfaction is a minimum of what I feel. My dilemma with Max however, is that every night ends with a conversation, each one more profound than the last. We talk about life, his life mostly, but I don’t mind. I usually fall into the category of listener. Savior. Whatever works for whatever situation I find myself in. Tell me Ladies, am I a victim? Or am I just enjoying the role? I’m yearning for a savant who is rehearsed in the art of mind-reading, independence, communication, love-making, sweet gestures, and hard work. I’m trying to stop settling for just a piece of the pie. I wonder how many of yall can guess my zodiac sign hmm… It's been two days without him & I can’t lie although I’m not feigning for sex, it’s just comfortable, I’ve gotten use to the way it feels, and living in that moment of intensity & letting it wash off with that early morning shower.. It’s our world & our dirt. Just our secret. As fucked up as it sounds, I like it that way.

⤁⤀⤀

Damn, he’s calling right now, I’ve got to go Ladies!

Best Regards,

LovergurlP❣️

Heeyyy, it's been a looong time... *checks date* Again. It's been almost a month since I last put something on this blog. I've been really busy. being dead. And I haven't been playing Portal 2. But I have been playing a lot of the classic Sonic games via the Mega Collection, the absolutely incredible compilation disc. I think it tops Sonic Origins (which I haven't played). I feel like the comics and older illustrations, commercials, and Ristar (pronounced "Rye-star" or "Wrist-ar"? Or "Ree-star"?) win me over. And also, from what I've heard and observed, there wasn't as much love and care put into it, so the overall quality experience is hindered because

Money money money Is all you need

( Did you know ALL models of the PS3 can play PSX discs? I've been playing my newly acquired PaRappa the Rapper, too. I now own the trilogy. Only UmJammer Lammy is digital. I bought PaRappa 2 physically at my first gaming convention back in 2018, only to find out later my wife can't use PS2 discs. Big sad. You might saying "why don'tcha just jailbreak it?" I wouldn't, but even if I wanted to, I don't have the correct model. It's been so many years anyways, I wouldn't have her any other way :3 )

AND. It was with this compilation that--after all these years--that I finally achieved: 1) Beating Sonic 3D Blast (with the emeralds) 2) Beating the first level of Sonic Spinball (I've recommend some guy on YouTube having also done this, so good for him) These may not mean a lot to you, but to me? Man. And y'know what? I actually enjoyed my time with 3D Blast. It was a...unique game. I really like seeing all the sights and how the game progressed after Green Grove. After Rusty Ruin, I noticed Tails' and Knuckles' locations became way less hidden. Rusty Ruin Act 2, I think it was, had THE BEST hidden location, for Tails it might have been. No, scratch that--the whole ZONE has the best locations, you really have to go out of your way for them. What's that? ... Where did I find him? Pssh, I'm not telling you, play the game and use your brain. Just don't spin yourself around too much tryna find him. Anyways, I've been busy doing things. I've been developing a under-HTML-construction digital portfolio of almost all the art I've posted on Tumblr since uuuhm late 2020. You can find it through the link below: > the link < I'm beginning to have second thought about this one, too, so don't expect me to keep it for too long. Parallel to that, I've been trying animation again. Look guys look it is my greatest achievement: wario land 4 for the gameboi advanced. incrredible incrrrEedible- look guys look

Sigh...y'know, getting guud learning basic anatomy and figure drawing can spark an improved journey... This isn't the "true animation". What I mean is each of the original drawings were MUCH larger than my Flash Document canvas (1440x1080), so by compressing everything into a Graphic symbol, I was able to minimize all the frames at once to fit. It took a few tries to work, so I had to be conscientious as to not save over the "uncompressed" drawings. k cya l8r

do you like any other older horror movies? That's a very dumb question but I'm unashamed about such things. I've rewatched some of the movies that really scared me when I was younger, and if anything they're even more scary now. I only watched 3 or 4 of the Saw films, but your blog is making me feel like looking again.

I love the entire genre, please yell at me if I mess up a reblog, or if my extensive experience in the field can help with your endeavors. I'm a John Carpenter fan from Way back; sometimes I don't know who directed what has become my favorite movie of the week and it turns out to be his...some of em aren't horror, like Starman, but it's heavy sci fi, and 80's Jeff Bridges is such a great actor...rambling with the lunatics. I like your blog! Don't fall for any of those HP Lovecraft movies; there's no sex in the books or stories so that Reanimator fool can go...sex was the selling point in the 80's though, guess it couldn't be avoided. I've read a ton; it's gotta be good for something. The way folks are saying manifest; that's made it back around after 24, 25 years. I'm tryna track something, for the good of everyone, but I'm no psychic medium, not even a small. If you think I made even a little bit of sense, I thank you for your time.

Okay! what's One movie you Won't watch, or Can't? I couldn't watch more than probably 10 minutes of High Tension, probably because I have kids, but I think that's the only one that keeps me from looking at it. Tobyn Bell should get a fun, dancing man role huh? He's pleasant to see if you ask me;) my kid's a huge Leatherface fan but they remember his name and everything. I "got" to see all the Faces of Death tapes as a teenager, we're fine, we're fine(just smile and nod)...I'm not sure how much longer I have on this earth, so I'm making it weird, and keeping it positive and spooky is challenging! But this Halloween will be my first single Halloween since lots of years ago and I am not going to let it slip past another year. My parent's were wed on Halloween, they forgot the 31st was already special, and I've always liked that memory of them making out on the couch between the trick or treat visits...anyway, have a great day, forgive me for going off on Every tangent, still looking for my pack y'know? Idk if covens advertise openings and I'm still learning to behave lmao...if intent is truly key, I am so good. My intentions are good. I'm never surprised that we get to know the "bad guys", monsters in the movies and stories that I personally can't really hate, or judge, but those are the fictional ones. Unfortunately the bad guys out here are really bad, and boringly bad. Yell at me any time, but y'know I won't hear it, lmao

Holy Moly, I am so sorry, my dumb ass basically took forever to figure out how to reply but hey I got it now, haha!

And no, don't worry about rambling I totally enjoy your stories and thoughts and I find it amazingly sweet that you even took the time to write to me, really and I am always open to chat! (And in all honesty, I am still learning to behave as it, but there's nothing wrong with having a little fun, wink wink.)

I do wanna ay I think it's super cool you're parents got married on Halloween, that's totally badass! Halloween is my favourite holiday, my Mom was super big on it because she never got to celebrate it when she was young cause she grew up super religious and it was to make up for lost time.

If I ever got married and I could convince my partner on a date, I probably pick October 1st, but in all honesty, as long as I can get married in Autumn I am totally happy. Though that's a rant for another time, haha.

Now to answer both of your questions:

I really like a lot of horror and I usually go from 1920s German Expressionism horror to present day. Though I am not gonna lie to you, I get really stuck with that late 60s/70s horror, especially that Art house horror like The Last House on the Left or I Spit On Your Grave cause I really enjoy realistic, could really happen horror, plus as a film manic, the 60s/70s had a lot of freedom with things like art and film and I just feel we get more out of that and I'm just like you where it's dirty, raw and full of sex, haha.

Though the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre from 1974 is my all time favourite horror film of all time, but I do really enjoy Last House, Spit on Your Grave, Black Christmas, The Wicker Man and all that.

80s is a hit miss for me, I'm really not a big fan of those popular slashers like Elm Street, or Child's Play or Friday the 13th, but love those somewhat terrible b movies like Sleepaway Camp or Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2.

B Movies are another big thing for me, anything from Puppet Master to Basket Case to Evil Dead.

Now to you second question, the one film I can't watch and it's one of the very few films I've seen once and it's Cannibal Holocaust. I don't know what it was, I love cannibalistic films like The Hills Have Eyes or Cannibal! The Musical; but for some reason, this film didn't sit right with me, I can't tell you if it was cause it was too realistic, too bloody or the fact that they killed real animals on camera or that in reality you don't really know who the villain's really are (that's another rant for another time, I gotta whole essay on that, yeah, I'm a loser haha). In all honesty, I think it was all of the above for me, either way I can't do it, I look away if I see even clips of it or something, though I am trying to hyper myself up and try to watch again in the future as a future film study since I believe it's on both Tubi and/or Shudder.

Either way, I thank you very much for message and posting ask! Don't be afraid to send more, I am always willing to chat, (now that I figured out how to reply) and I hope you don't mind that i post this if ya do, just shoot a me a message, but either way, thank you so much for your time!

Listening

(3 October 2022)

youtube

Receptionist: Good morning. South East London Services for Emotionally Unavailable Sagittarius Self-Partnered Artists. This is Lillian Speaking, how can I help?

Me: Hi... Yes... I wonder if I could speak to someone about what I’m really feeling.

Receptionist: Yes, I will transfer you to my colleague, Eywa. One moment please.

[The sound of ‘Tryna Call - Watch This - Mixed’ by Felix Geith plays as the receptionist organises the transfer]

Eywa: Hello, this is Eywa. May I speak to you?

Me: Yes. Thank you.

Eywa: I know you’ve had a little wobble. Yesterday, last night and this morning. Nothing serious, we know, but an episode of feeling weird. It happens to the best of us. It might creep you out that I know so much about you. I’ll shut up now and let you tell me your experience in your own words.

Me: Let me list what I’ve been feeling. I’m sexually blocked. Feel lonely at times and in need of some encouragement. Not feeling like I can go back to where I’m from because nobody seems to get me is equally not a nice feeling. It feels like I filter myself so as not to offend anyone and to be understood.

[I take a pause for some porridge.]

I’m also frustrated when I have to spend my energy on things other than art making. I’m frustrated when the time I have for art making isn’t productive. I hate that word but I want to surround myself by my visions and be able to do that without worrying about the time I have available to me. I’m worried I’m being too patient. I’m worried I’m not working hard enough. I’m worried I’m preoccupying myself too much with the details. I’m worried it’s too late. I’m worried I’m going to get left behind. I need the time to make the work and...

Eywa: I understand. What do you think you could do better or differently to help yourself?

Me: Write every morning like I am doing. Determine what’s the priority in what I’m learning, like I’m doing. Be consistent. Trust the process. When I’ve finished the lily painting, make a lot of smaller paintings. Try out new things. Grass, water, faces, hands, water, weather, go outside and take a lot of reference images, play on Photoshop, make some digital scenes. Plan and design the next four paintings and execute them as fast as possible. Less filtering. More making.

Eywa: Anything else?

Me: Go for a f*cking run. Go to the gym. Go take myself, just me, on something I know I’ll love. Plan the time to do that.

Eywa: What else?

Me: Making a reading list of the top 6 books I want to read for my practice. Just a handful with one extra finger, if I like.

Eywa: Your digital scenes are frustrating you, aren’t they?

Me: Yes. New software is always hard. Learn to use the basics one evening. Then make a scene. One scene for October.

I also want to do they dyeing. My issue is I want to do so much. Need to choose.

Eywa: Things take time. Be patient. Trust the process. Don’t put obstacles in your own way.

sorry late reply my life has been realll busy lately 😭 CONGRATS ON THE NEW JOB BB!! thats so slayyy

little life update for me, there was something wrong w the system of our school which made me join the art club instead of the literature T_T BUT ITS OK BC THE PEOPLE THERE ARE SO NICE!! and painting is like rlly fun idk how i havent tried it before but now i enjoy it sm haha

how’s ur new job going? (if u started already ofc) thats so cool actually like a kpop merch shop with cute plushies?? HEAVENNNN ME THINKS

as for my job, today was my second day and it's going pretty well so far! two crazy customers came in tho, it was wild... so basically, the first customer came in and wanted to know the price of one of our plushies, to which i responded the price ($13.95) and then she literally took time to go to the other end of the store and back just to take a picture of one of the price tags on the shelf that says $10... i refused to let her pay only $10 bc... wtf??!?!?? n then she got mad at me and told me that "the price is final and that it's the law" like bro what ... absolute crickets me thinks babes.

the second customer was whack too bc he came in and was like "u guys are beautiful... are u angels???" to my coworkers and i, and we were obviously uncomfortable bc bitch i'm tryna do my job wtf is wrong w u, and then he proceeded to ask all three of us out and we said that we all have bfs (in reality only one of us do but this guy is fuckin' relentless) but anyways, when we rejected him, he stayed in the shop for another 30-40 mins and finally left. and lemme remind u that this whole man was fucking 40-50 years old... literally the same age... as... my... dad. LIKE WTF??? i literally look like a twelve year old w blue hair like wtf is wrong w u dude.

Art Fight(and not) Things !! Welcome to the grey canvas show. Premature posting for over half of them and late posting for the rest, but reasons for that below the cut. As well as some context for each.

1st is a ref I made for my sona, which has yet to be put up. Been delayed due to working on other things and still not having a name. 2nd is a NB visibility Floofty I kinda just.... cobbled together? Not sure if it’s all that great, *and* it’s late, but... well. Hrgrhrhgrhgrhgr 3rd is the start of the AF things with @snakjomo‘s Journalist, whom I’ve become very fond of in my time consuming Bugsnax content. Their design might be subject to change, but I’ll love em either way <3 4th is Quillda Tiddlything from @calliopepreforms who is ADORABLE, I love her cute lil stubby legs, hair, and oversized glasses. She’s like prime pick up and cuddle material, absolutely amazing. 5th and 6th are both @cheesesteakphil‘s Orlifa Featherbean (sure do draw lots of journalists, huh?) and the first I got a bit too ambitious with while I hope they don’t mind the slightly shippy content of the second >.> If not then We Are Shaking Hands On Appreciating Floofy

So! Additional context... well, frankly, the Art Fight work hasn’t exactly been going swimmingly. I’ve been trying new things and have Sort Of had ideas, but it’s been just as much sitting still as moving forward, frankly. And I’d felt bad that it seemed like I had nothing to show, while getting frustrated with the inability to properly finish anything. Iunno, I’ve gotten impatient and also in some weird way showing stuff might help my brain move forward. I hope it doesn’t come off as... lazy or anything like that :l 1st image has already been pretty explained. I drew it shortly after the previous reference for a commission because I just wanted to do something new. It’s a little samey in expression and not as neat in terms of composition, while lacking in details like the headphones and lil cassette player, but I figured I could pair them together to shore up on any missing bits. 2nd also pretty self-explanatory, and shows a trend I have with expressions for SURE. Like, left corner of the mouth up type beat. I’m tryna break outta habits with this stuff, but it is Not Easy. That bow tie kicked my ass too. And I’m not sure I’m entirely satisfied with what I came up with, ultimately, but I didn’t want to wait too long either. Even though NB Visiblity Day’s already passed us up regardless. Floofty’s existence means a lot to me and I had to do *something*, y’know? 3rd has a bit of extra detail in that I meant for it to be a sequence. Like Buddy and Filbo sitting at the campfire and all that with a side of Gay Realization and such. The good stuff. Unfortunately, I’d been struggling a lot with composition and have No Idea have to do backgrounds. To the point where I couldn’t come up with anything additional. What’s there is ok, but the missed potential is horribly frustrating. Just hope it’s alright enough. Lighting’s kinda scuffed too, I know. ...I should stop looking so closely. 4th is yet another thing that doesn’t need too much explanation beyond “haha tiny journalist :)” tbh. It’s really not the best little sketch, but I also felt bad not including it? Have To Express The Love And If I Don’t I Die. 5th and 6th are a whole load because I originally started with the first bit from suddenly being struck with the idea of Orlifa in that comfy denim jacket from their ref in snow or smthn. While having a lil detail of when you do that like... exhale from the side of your mouth in the winter thing in mind. Got pretty experimental with the coloring and shading and things like that, which has been a learning experience for sure, even if I’m not 100% of the result. Backgrounds are not and will likely continue to not be my strong suit, but I’m hoping to get better about it. Probably not the best idea to be trying to go all out during a time limited event, however I uh... just care a little too much ahahhh... Had even been trying to take up painting to do a piece of Egg’s(Snakjomo’s) Neme and Cath. Or one of them, at least. SO much brain hurty. Anyway, with that second sketch I just thought it might be neat to do more than one thing for them. I like drawing interactions I know they like Floofty, so.. one thing led to another and there’s that. *Had* to do something with Orlifa for that sweet sweet Floofty Enjoyer and NB Solidarity. Then uh... that’s that. There’s other works, but they’re not really Bugsnax related, so I opted to omit them. While a lot of this stuff is sketchy af and ultimately unfinished, I hope they’re worth at least a little to everyone who got something. Might not be all there is, but my pace is gonna be horribly slow. So (maybe) stay tuned for any of that.

I’m applying for apartments in my town for college and all these girls are posting pics of themselves and I hate to say it but it makes me feel so ugly. All these pretty blonde girlies in short slips and heavy makeup and bralettes and I feel like I’m not even worthy of being in their presence. If it was just a few I could handle it but it’s like every single housing posting on facebook is filled w them and I feel like the odd one out if I don’t link my insta (which I don’t have) or post a sexy pic when im just tryna find a place to live. I also have the flattest chest imaginable (legit 13 year old boy body) so there’s nothing I can do to even make myself look like a girl. I feel inhuman in comparison. Not a girl, not a boy, so what am I? After being a radfem I feel so far removed from regular women who shave wear makeup etc. that I feel like an alien. Idk what to do besides starting a feminist book club around a dworkin book and hoping radfems or open minded women join up. Feels so lonely going to a liberal arts college and seeing all the girls who have only fans and say its empowering when its really only empowering to hot white girls and they just dont understand. Anyways sorry to dump that was all over the place lol I love you though!! Thank you for your blog

Hey anon! Firstly I'm really sorry this response is so late. It sounds to me like you're in that difficult stage of becoming a radfem where you've become aware of how harmful femininity is but you haven't been able to internalise it yet. I want you to know that you can get past that, and when you do, you'll feel comfortable in your own skin and know you look female (trust me here, I am also flat-chested; people can tell, they just look for your gender role performance before they look for your sex characteristics) and the girls performing femininity will seem like the aliens. When you see them you'll think about how much time and money they could've spent on something they liked instead of editing themselves for other people's approval. You'll think about how much it sucks not to be able to touch your own face or cry. Even just having a social media presence like that and posing for 'sexy' pictures must be exhausting.

Honestly the best thing you can do is hang out with female friends and read radfem literature. Also spending time with other gender nonconforming women is truly a magical experience when it comes to body image, I can't recommend it enough. Keep reaching out to like-minded women when it gets hard.

Thanks for the compliment ❤️. The stuff you're talking about is stuff I have experience with and this could easily be a much longer response, so let me know if you want to talk about it more (I promise I'll respond quicker next time)!

Also bit of a sidenote I'm going to have to disagree about onlyfans being empowering when you're white and conventionally attractive; I think prostitution is inherently degrading and exploitative, even when you're successful at it.

#ask #anon #sorry again for this being so late #hope you found a place

so i watched cobra kai all in two days and i have so many -

this show has so many cool and smart angles to it, but the same time.... its so stupid oh my god everyone is so dumb literally mr miyagi held all of the braincells in this whole universe

like i am but at the same time i am not surprised it was made like this, bc in hindsight of course there were hordes of ppl simping over johnny lawrence .... but it still amuses me that this is like... an Actual Official Thing

ok this will get long so cut it is

how much fun this cast has is super visible and i love it

i rly enjoy how the world was expanded ! i did grow up watching the karate kid movies, so watching how they progressed the world of the movies so organically was pretty cool. it rly feels like its the same universe

i fucking LOVE stories that are largely about a Thing. dancing ,skating, sports its just so thrilling to experience this all consuming relationship people can have with this type of activity? and martial arts are just that much more intense, so yeah, grown ass men kicking each other around at the lightest provocation and a war veteran caring so much abt teen karate is Ridiculous.... but i love it all because thats the intensity i find so thrilling

was kinda surprised with how much im missing mr. miyagi. first because, like everyone is so unhinged jesus christo, it just really throws into relief how much his character grounded the narrative of the movies. but also hes just a really great character

and on that note it rly Gets Me that the show itself aknowledges that and plays that into daniels angst and all the little ways they sorta weave myiagisms into the whole show........ im not getting emotional over this dumb karate dads show OK

related - i really miss hearing ‘daniel-san’ 🥺🥺

ACE DEGENERATE oh god oh no

they really went down the down and out johnny lawrence route huh. like i was always kinda bummed we see kreese choking him and then we never see him again in the movies, and while i love dumpster fire problematic trash himbo ck johnny, its like......................... actually really sad that his life turned out like this fjngn

everytime i hear ‘babes’ and ‘pussy’ i die a little inside. i know thats the point but i am a v cringe easy person, have mercy (ehe)

loved the way they are constantly drawing parallels between johnny and mr. myiagi of all people. hes the handy man of his building that has a bullied kid asking for help and eventually steps up to teach them karate, beats up a bunch of bullies for him, creates a friendship with said kid, estranged from family, drinks his sorrows away, surprisingly one of the least quick to anger characters (which says more about everyone else really but.... Well.), no schemes or ulterior motives hes just tryna vibe here.... oh and ofc magically heals miguel of is asthma apparently. the true disciple.. meanwhile daniel is his usual messy petty self even tho he wants to be mr myiagi so bad

also interesting about that is how miguels character is a parallel of both johnny and daniel at the same time

overall the parallels in ck are done really well, drawing comparisons and also subverting them constantly. theyre well thought out

THE PARALELOGRAMS

fr tho, the angle being explicitly the cycle of trauma and its effects and how trumatized adults in turn traumatize kids, maliciously or not, is so interesting

but! on the flip side of that, it feels like the writers are getting in their own way @ letting the characters grow. especially this last season. theres only so many times you can do "johnny and daniel are getting along but 5mins later they are (literally) fighting over some dumbass random issue" or "johnny puts in 20% of effort with robby and then gives up" before it gets on your nerves yknow?

i see daniel no longer talks like macchio ingested 15 shots of espresso before every take and idk how to feel about that tbh

interesting tension in daniel, as in, in tkk mr miyagi was there and daniel was frankly, kind of a lil shit, this messy petty spitfire hot tempered sassy kid,(johnny lawrence voice: just... stop being so annoying) but now hes the adult, and he wants to be mr. miyagi... but hes just not, and never will be to his very core and it shakes him and in a way hes trying to find who he is now that he sees himself in a position to be a not! cobra kai figure. i kinda really like that

plus how that relates to his cobra kai trauma. idk if the writers thought abt it Like That, i think so, but in any case, its interesting bc it seems like daniel has told everyone whod listen about johnny lawrence his Pretty Boy Karate Rival and high school and 84 cobra kai... But. no one seems to know what went on in 85 (or 86? idk) which was just so much worse

like ye og cobras were shitheads, but tkk iii is just two hours of daniel being emotionally and physically tortured.

like, the third movie is.............chaotic, to put it nicely, and many people ignore it, but the writers clearly didnt. daniels actions are, in a way, responding so much more to the events of tkk iii than to the first movie ie. johnny himself, AND. daniel doesnt rly seem to have dealt with that trauma? he never told sam? doesnt feel like hes ever told amanda? he doesnt even say terrys name out loud? freaks Out over kreese ? the way he reacts to robbys deceit? his FACE when he walks past the new "fear does not exist in this dojo" paint or kreeses photo? hmMm i sense Pain

his fashion tho........... disappointing. where are the flower shirts daniel huh we had one (1) shirt what a tragedy STOP WEARING SUITS ALL THE TIME . also the band ts/grunge bi are a look for johnny but part of me longs for the preppy lovable 80s bully chic johnny lawrence getups

weird that they never used that last moment of karate kid where johnny kinda... snaps out of his anger and hands daniel the trophy almost in tears. like “youre alright larusso, good match” “thanks a lot” that being their last direct interection seems like itd be perfect fruit for cobra kai but... they just dont. weird.

especially when, the FIRST SCENE they see each other, suposedly in 30+ years, the first thing to come out of daniels mouth is QUOTE "u still got those golden locks huh?" WHO SAYS SHIT LIKE THAT DANIEL FUCKING SAN

also amandas immediate reaction "your pretty boy rival?" like. can we talk about the fact that daniel had to have imparted to his wife the very important information that his high school bully/karate rival was like Really Cute and Fucking Hot Actually

the writers Knew exactly what they were doing and honestly.............. power to them

tkk director voice: and billy was just so cute

also I was thinking that daniel sounded strangely fond in that first scene, and i wonder if he developed a weird affection for johnny on the grounds that of all of his Karate Rivals johnny was actually the only one who didn’t actively tried to literally kill him

i was actually delightedly surprised with how great the chemistry between them is, like from the get go i am Invested. their rl friendship totally bleeds through and its fantastic

. granted, idiots enemies to lovers friends is my Thing so i am biased

johnny lawrence: i am down in the dumps, i fucked up my whole life and my sons probably, largely in light of the trauma that the father figure sensei and the philosophy of my karate inflicted on me and all my friends. u know what i should do, as a traumatized, unreliable mess of an adult? teach that same philosophy to some other kids! what could go wrong!

but really i enjoy the setup of it. i kinda like that i watched it late because, season 1 was johnny setting himself up for failure in a way and it was exciting to watch it all go to shit sjfn

Like. his heart might be in the right place, but theres just.... not a way to teach something like ‘strike hard, no mercy’ and not have it fuck up a kid

case and point: aisha, miguel and hawk become annoying as all hell over that bullshit in the end of s1, even before shit gets truly fucked up

billys subtle panicked eyes when he sees hawk and miguel fighting dirty in the all valley was SO GOOD especially in parallel with the panic that is so visible in his face in the movie when kreese tells bobby to injure daniel and in the sweep the leg scene

seen people question wether kreese should have returned and i absolutely think he needed to. johnny needed to realize that cobra kais fundamentals are flawed, at the root, beyond kreese himself being a toxic piece of shit

also who are we kidding? we are here to see the tkk characters play on new playgrounds!

i get what they're doing abt kreeses backstory, ( also. cobra kai. pq eles caem nas cobras djjs sorry) but did it need to take up that much time? feels like they couldve done it in half the run time and developed some other stories better

martin kove has such an evil eye. i love it

love that we get a good follow up to kreese breaks johnnys trophy and tries to CHOKE HIM in the parking lot, which happened in the movie and then....................... was never mentioned again

“the gang is all back together again” aaaa u piece of SHIT

also. terry silver is definetely appearing ha ha ha PAIN i cant wait

seen ppl say kreese was too much of a cartoon villain like..........................oh......... sweetie........... u dont even Know

interested how johnny will fit into that bc kreese was simping rly hard for johnny here. like i did not expect him to be so adamant to have him with cobra kai ... under his control, sure, but he really wants johnny by his side despite already having control of the dojo and how will terry silver self appointed jon kreeses forever simp going to feel abt that?

like bitchs dropping by every episode like ‘joooooohnny ..... come bacc to me joooonny......... this ur last warning! for real this time johnny! i wont say it again! watch me ! im leaving johnny! im rly leaving ! im dragging a chair” and johnny is just like. dont let the door hit ya bitch it was so funny pls

and on that subject oof, johnny! doesnt! Know! he doesnt get that side of daniels cobra kai trauma. and i kind of.............. cannot wait for ck 2021 johnny lawrence to meet terry silver like. what a shit show i need a front row seat and popcorn (imagine terry tries some greasy charm and johnny just roundhouse kicks him in the teeth bc he just doest Not Have the Patience for This. glorious)

feels like we, as a society, should acknowledge that cobra kai will never die................ bc their sense of design is just chefs kiss. their name is COBRA KAI. they have sexie sleeveless black gis. theyve sneks. colorful leather jackets with embroided naja insignia, the get ppl thru the aesthetics. evil geniuses

the flashback cuts : masterpiece behavior

the other takes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! of the movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the differente angles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! of the FIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE CLOSE UP ON JOHNNYS FACE AT THE KICK

that scene of daniel and johnny vibing to 80s music in the car. just. oh my god. the fan wish fullfilment. no thoughts head empty.

the new characters! theyre .... good. but. idk. i really like miguel (save for the annoying phase mid s1 - end s2) and amanda, who is a damn riot and has some functioning braincells, but everyone else is

like dont get me wrong, i dont hate anyone,its not a jane and rafael from jtv situation, and i am interested and invested in their arcs, but i wouldnt say i like Like them, as in, personality wise

like, sams grappling with ptsd was rly gutting and i enjoyed that plus her slight rage issues,

which nicely parallel torys rage issues. torys background is all over the place tho so im pretty on the fence abt her so far

robby deserves better in every way, and i like how smart and cunning and surprisingly sweet he is

hawk............... is there i guess,

demetri is annoying in the best way possible,

carmen is sweet but. i just feel like her character is blunted to make the johnny relationship easier. like when shes furious with him after miguels injury but then forgives him like an episode later? and then convinces him to fight for the tournament bc she had a karate epiphany off screen even tho she was always against it? meh. feels like with the plot thiccening she was swallowed and now shes like a crutch for johnny mora than anything, which is disappointing.

aisha was cool and im kinda mad she wasnt in s3, especially bc a storyline with her tory and sam was like RIGHT THERE , but also... cant say i was super super fond of her... doesnt feel like we ever spent enough time on her

moon the bi icon,

overall its a good cast but the main draw for me remains the og cast

the tory/sam miguel/robby Thing. enjoy how theyre Narrative Foils and i like how their stories were so dramatically entangled but oh god give me a break with the teenage love square for the love of god. if u gonna put us through that at least have the decency to not make it so straight

and honestly some sam/tory miguel/robby romantic tension would even make more sense. just saying!

also im not sure how i feel abt the cobra kai: red miyagi do: blue theyre going with since some of daniels most iconic looks in tkk are also red. like it was a color they (johnny and him) sorta shared. i get it, opposite but complementary but idk... a little too fire nation and water tribe for me .

and like the cobra kai kids are so funny abt it bc their outifts grow progressively more ridiculously coordinated. its like do they group chat every morning before leaving their houses?

robby still sticks out like that tho. he went thru an athleisure/daniel san tsleeves phase and now hes back in the bandts grunge, but his color scheme doesnt fully blend with the other cobra kais. hmmmm.

LOVED LOVED LOVED both the okinawa episode and the cobra kais easy rider episode just such good good heart aching fun

bobby is an icon. he was in tkk and he is now ck hope appears more and more

tommy is like the most iconic background character. all his lines, freaking gold then and now. sigh :(

the framing in the okinawa trip was so good everything was so good

i stand by the fact that kumiko was the love interest daniel had the most chemistry with and shes is overall such a joy to watch, loved to see her again, idola, fashion icon

also tkk ii is good u guys are just mean

also really enjoyed chozens role in the episode, his evolution; i love that they introduced the pressure points (ty lee the blueprint) and! the honk + karate! cousins! absolutely iconic

when kumiko reads mr miyagis letters........ oh my god, my eyes FILLED with tears, it was so heart wrenching :(( tamlyns delivery was so emotional and lovely and its so obvious everyone involved in ck has so much love and respect for pat morita and mr miyagi as character, and i adore that it exists like this electric current through the show

when we were watching i told my sister i thought that ali would be miguels big shot surgeon and ngl i am so disappointed that didnt happen. hire me cobra kai writers

also the johnny ali daniel amanda chemistry? off the charts

AND the sassy retconning of daniel and alis breakup! LMAO ‘I HOPE U DIDNT TELL MR MIYAGI IT WAS MY FAULT’ HFDJJGNKFKSD

i am preeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetty sure back injuries dont work like that but oke

daniel and johnny are so good together whenever, like they never actually help the kids or get shit done and end up fighting anyway but its just so much fun when theyre hanging

JOHNNY LAWRENCE AND DANIEL LARUSSO FIGHTING TOGETHER

daniels “plan” on how to get robby to juvie was so stupid. literally were u TRYING to make him hate you. dumbass

parents at those hearing rly brave for ppl that did not do ANYTHING as their kids got involved in a karate gang war until now

“bullshit i heard u were the real bully!” i mightve screeched

this s3 ending was SO DRAMATIC omg

everyone is such a MESS go to THERAPY u unhinged motherfckers

also im sorry but uh. a richass neighborhood in california doesnt have some type of neighborhood watch? the larussos rly dont have any security at all? neighbors wont hear the sound of a damn karate brawl happening next door??? also wasnt tory all like ooo i cant go to juvie, my mom yada yada yet shes always running around town getting into fights even at the rich girls house she was kicked out of school for fighting?? ? ?? ?? ? ? ? ?? ? ? girl??

stop destroying the larussos house, its so pretty :((((

sam finding her center looking at mr miyagis picture... uwu maybe

robby yelling ‘U ARE WEAAK’@ johnny \as he is easily blocking him is like.... so funny and so sad to me. sweetheart.

also i know it was meant as ‘oh johnny pushes him and HURTS HIM’ but it just looks like robby runs himself into the lockers and IM SO SORRY I FEEL SO BAD BUT IT WAS SO FUNNY

i like that he and tory are the cobra kai kids now. we need ppl we care abt there to not revert to a good vs evil schtick, and this is the most engaging it could be... tho it hurts that these kids cant catch a break

ah yes "lets bet some real shit on the result of this teen karate tournament bc that is always a great idea" is BACK

so daniel saves johnny from kreese..... maybe johnny will save him from terry 🧐

and dojos unite ohohoho. lets SEE how that’ll work out

miguels face of Despair when the ck defectors and the md kids are bickering like 'this is never gonna work' : gold

also. Johnny Lawrence is gonna learn some myiagi-do karate AHAAHSJAKDFH

ive been waiting for this moment all my lifeeee oh lawrd

final thoughts! there are def things i hope the writers will improve on the next season, but i am very excited for it either way AND i feel like it has made me enjoy the movies even more and that is a win for a reboot/sequel to me!!

#m.#did i procrastinate watching this since it came out and only watched it now bc my sister nagged me to when i said we should #watch karate kid over the holidays?#and then binged the whole thing in two days??#mayhaps and what abt it #cobra kai #the karate kid #its funn #y bc like karate kid is a Childhood movie but i wouldnt say #it was like particularly special for me?#like i wasnt in a fandom or anything #but now.#i might be invested #maybe #talvez

detention with plus size reader - john bender

requested by @soggy-enchilada 💖 I hope you enjoy! sorry it’s so late😖

- it was 7:45am when you trudged into school for saturday detention

- you’d been caught smoking a joint in the art room during lunch on wednesday and you were immediately sent to the vice principal’s office

- and that old bastard gave you a wonderful 9 hours of detention to look forward to

- when you walked in the library was empty, so you sat at the front row

- 15 minutes of twiddling your thumbs later, the door swung open

- in waltzed the school’s resident bad boy, john bender

- notorious asshole and trouble maker

- still hot though

- john wasn’t sure what to make of you when he saw you first

- he’d seen you around in the halls before but didn’t know you at all

- he had no clue how you’d managed to end up in trouble, you didn’t seem like the type to do anything bad

- so detention was the perfect opportunity to get to know you

- by annoying you til you talked!!!

- he sat across and behind you without a word and slung his feet onto the table

- after a lengthy welcome from vernon, detention was underway

- you decided it would be best to set about doing the task he’d given you for the day

- so you grabbed your pencil and started to plan what you would write

- meanwhile, bender decided it would be more fun to make a paper aeroplane out of his sheet and throw it at you

- he even put a lovely message on it for you

- “sit on my face”

- you scoffed and scrunched the plane up then turned to glare at him

- “what?” he said. “I think any guy would want thighs like yours around his head”

- “you’re not funny.”

- “I wasn’t joking, but suit yourself” he shrugged to himself then lit a cigarette

- you turned back to your paper, blushing

- it was quiet for a while after that

- john occasionally got up and wandered around, mooching behind bookshelves and nosing in the offices

- you just ignored him and kept working on your essay

- “why are you so boring?” bender asked, coming to lean on the table in front of you

- “why are you so annoying?” you quipped back

- “woah, no need to be hostile. I’m just tryna be friendly!”

- “what, by calling me boring?”

- you threw your pencil onto the table and huffed, crossing your arms over your chest

- “well that’s cause you’re being boring!”

- you sighed, unfolding your arms again

- you were being a bit boring and doing the work so you didn’t get detention again

- there was no fun in that really

- “fine, what do you wanna talk about?”

- so the two of you talked

- for HOURS

- you had to pretend to work every once in a while when vernon checked in on you

- but aside from that you spent the whole of detention on the sofas and on the floor at the back of the room

- “okay, what are you most insecure about?” bender asked, rolling up another joint for you to share

- you had told him about getting caught the other day

- “my weight” you said quietly, and he looked over at you with wide eyes

- “you’re kidding right?”

- “no...”

- “well, I don’t know why you’re worried because you’ve got the body of a fucking goddess”

- “I’m not that special” you said shyly

- “lemme tell you something. I’ve done it with a lotta people, but skinny girls? they suck.”

- “really? I find that hard to believe”

- “I’m not kidding, doll. how would you feel if you had a bag of bones jerkin’ around on top of you? that shit sucks. I like my gals with something to hold on to, y’know?”

- you weren’t sure what to say exactly

- but you took it as a compliment

- “bigger girls are a thousand times better than skinny white girls, and that’s coming from experience, so don’t you ever hate your body because it’s goddamn perfect and I know I would worship it like it deserves to be”

- he continued, “you are perfect just the way you are. and anyone with the nerve to tell you otherwise is gonna have to go through me first. don’t let anything stop you believing in yourself”

- “I don’t know what to say, bender...”

- “you don’t have to say anything, sweets, just remember what I said”

- he lit his joint and watched you look at your lap through the smoke he blew

- he felt weird, like he wanted to make you happier

- in his mind he knew it would be wrong to give up his image, and he wasn’t the most sensitive, emotionally tuned of people anyways

- but his heart said different

- he passed you the joint, smiling as you visibly relax when the weed kicks in

- “y’know, you’re welcome to share weed with me anytime you want” he said as you headed out of detention later

- “thanks” you smiled gently

- “maybe I’ll see you around soon then?” he smirked

- “under the bleachers. I’ll bring a spare lighter” you chuckled in reply

- “that’s my girl.” he began to walk away, but turned after a second. “and y/n?”

- “yeah?”

- “never forget what I told you”

- and that’s how you learned to love yourself a little bit more
